[Lab] Laser Update

[Britta Evans-Fenton]

Hello All,

I have another laser update for everyone.

We are currently having filtration problems again, which has lead me
securing a space near our space that has an external wall.

PRO: we can now exhaust outside.

CON: we now have to build something to vent outside

CON: we will be limited to only engraving all items after work hours.

PRO: we will no longer have to worry about someone booking the lab to
discourage the use of the laser.


Also we have brought up the question as to whether we need to filter for
the acrylic.
Is it better to fill the air with plastic or our landfills with the HEPA
filters full of it.  Especially at this rate, we are going through one a
month or so.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
Also is anyone interested in helping the design and build of the exhausted
if it goes ahead.

Please do not use the laser for the time being, I will update you shortly.
Britta
